    Bunk Trailer for FRFS

    I've started the process of getting my bunkhouse trailer built for the "First Responder Feeding System" (the official reason I have the green machine addiction). First step was getting a stripped AN/MJQ-18 Power Plant (generators removed), taking the bows off and preparing the bed for a new...

    MEP derated power

    Lots of people have talked about how strong these generators are under normal circumstances, and several of us have commented about the Army testing method to determine the limits of power output. Well, I found a picture, courtesy of GL that explains it much better, and more definitively than...

    Replacing brake shoes

    Well, I know why the trailer I just bought had a tire/wheel that just wanted to stay locked up! Probably going to take more than a couple of shoes to fix this one.

    MKT changing covers

    Passing on some tricks when installing the new roof canopies and the travel covers, esp the side ones. 1. Use some dishwashing liquid on the top edge (part that has the rope sewn in), getting it covered well. Next rain will wash it away. 2. Have Soldier "B" guide the top edge into the...

    fuel pod, 600 gallon

    Just ordered a replacement manhole cover lid for my Highlands model TRL2000 600 gallon fuel pod. I have a type 1 manhole cover on it now, but the lock casting is broken and it can't be locked. The type 2 cover has the lock through two stainless steel plates instead of the aluminum casting...

    Ft Sill Pickup

    I need a lot picked up at Ft. Sill, not heavy but a bit on the bulky side. Dimensions are 22 x 22 x 58 high. It's a field hand wash station and the only way it can weigh as much as GL says is that it filled up with water sitting outside. Poly-John says they weigh about 70 pounds empty, and...

    M105 cover savers

    Since cargo covers for the M105 series trailers are not plentiful, and will become scarcer in the future, I started looking about for something to protect the ones I have from the ravages of the sun and other inclement weather. And I found something! Tarps & Covers | Tarps | Medium Duty Tarps...

    MKT to Food Sanitation Trailer

    Started on converting a stripped out MKT into a Field Sanitation Trailer. One I got has all three ladders, with handrails, an old icebox, all 12 canopy support poles, eight guard rails (horizontal railings), two standouts for wet weather and one long side wall section. It's a two digit serial...

    MKT as a Sanitation Trailer

    Well, I have tried out the three sinks in my MKT which is home being cleaned up from the GA Rally. Sinks in the picture are sitting on the existing frame, which is about nine inches too high. But, as a proof of concept, it will work!

    SC Antique Truck Law

    Well, I talked to a candidate running for office last fall and finally got around to checking on what I'd asked him to do if elected. Here's what I found: H 4032A BILL TO AMEND SECTIONS 56-3-2210 AND 56-3-2220, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR...

    MKT Roof Jack Grease

    Recently had this passed on to me. The correct civilian grease for the Roof Jack assembly (MIL-G-21164D) is Aeroshell 33MS, an extreme pressure (EP) grease. Most folks will be hard pressed to use an entire 14 oz tube, even when re-lubing both roof jacks and all four landing legs. Here's the...
